Singer Jessica Simpson has announced that she and her husband, former NFL player Eric Johnson, are parting ways after 10 years of marriage. The couple cited their children’s well-being as the reason for their decision to separate.
In a statement to multiple outlets, Simpson expressed gratitude for the love and support they’ve received during this challenging time, while asking for privacy as they navigate their situation. The news comes after recent speculation about the state of their relationship, including Johnson’s removal of his wedding band in November and Simpson’s cryptic Instagram post earlier this year.
Simpson’s younger sister Ashlee Simpson has been tight-lipped about the situation, but the couple did share a romantic and optimistic outlook on their marriage just months ago. However, it appears that things have taken a dramatic turn, leaving fans and followers wondering what led to their decision to end their relationship.
